I remember the Argyles in Crossmaglen in 1972 and the unfortunate loss of the 3 soldiers. I believe I was the Puma tasked to recover the injured to the Belfast Hospital. One had already died before being put in the ac and the other two died in hospital. A very sad day. RIP chaps.
There is a long 'I learnt about flying from that' Puma story connected to that incident.
I still think it is too early after the NI proceedings to expand on it within this forum.
I was also in Aden when 'Mad Mitch' (Col of the Argyles) did his thing! - fantastic stuff!!
